World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade's Midnight Run

My night elf priest has been waiting over two long years for a chance to enjoy the new content promised in the World of Warcraft Expansion, the Burning Crusade. The day is finally here, and next Tuesday, a few lucky members of the Alliance and Horde will be able to enjoy the fruits of their labor (i.e. sacrificing relationships, sleep, or any other semblance of having a life) with ten more levels to grind, new races, and lands to explore, with a little something extra to reward the fans.

Long have I cherished my limited edition Dawn of the Dead DVD, signed by George Romero, but that pales in comparison to the opportunity afforded those who attend the official Blizzard midnight launch events for the Burning Crusade expansion. Co-hosted by Blizzard, four retail outlets in California will be selling copies of the game and have Blizzard developers on hand for signings (I wonder if they'd sign my chest?).

But even if you can't make the official midnight launch events, retailers nationwide are planning their own midnight events where noobs and 1337's alike can purchase their own copy. So enchant that sword, flex your fingers, and stock the mini-fridge with carbonated beverages because on January 16th it's time to say goodbye to the outside world, all over again.
